Typewriter may need to be cleaned. It needs a new ribbon from sitting for many years. I am not sure if it needs work so it is being sold for parts or not working.
The Vintage Sears Tutor Portable Manual Typewriter Model 871-1970 is a retro piece that holds historical significance. Made by Sears in the United Kingdom, this typewriter from the Tutor series is a charming reminder of a bygone era of communication. The typewriter comes in a stylish blue case, making it both functional and aesthetically pleasing for vintage enthusiasts or collectors of unique office equipment.
